Either you're a tiny tiny munchkin or that's one BIG ARSE Turbo
(I now understand the chassis brace would be nice if it were trinagulated though)

Ian,
There will be some round bar gussets off of it for sure. I just wanted to test it out and see if it would take the weight of the turbo as it was. I'll probably even re weld it on a bit of an angle. The turbo is VERY low, and i'm worried that if (god forbid) the fron tend come up a bit and i have a "less than soft" landing, that the turbo might hit the ground. So its either make some protection for the turbo or mount it slightly higher. Still havent decided yet....
Jason,
The sawzall is my best friend
Dave,
Thanks, i like seeing the progress myself!
better safe then sorry.

man you said it so much better then I ever could.IJ. said:Bryan: Ummm rear weight bias 1000rwhp slicks I think wheels up launches are a given
I dunno Ian. That turbos pretty heavy...that might be all the ballast i need to keep the nose down.
ive only ever seen 2 supras lift the front wheels, and one of them had a 20b rotory swap. none was a tube front end with gobs of power. i wouldnt be surprised if you were looking at fresh air when you launch.
btw, what are your plans for the front suspension?

*** parts update ***
FINALLY got my flanges cut...they took foreverrrrrr
Got my fuel rail, rail clamps, 12 injector bungs, and a drill bit for the injector holes to make my rail. Now i'm equipped to make some nice fuel rails for anyone that may be interested
